😎 About Me
I am a final-year Ph.D. candidate at the Intelligent Computing Laboratory, SIGS, Tsinghua University, advised by Prof. Xiangyang Ji and Prof. Xiu Li.
I received both my B.Eng. and M.Eng. from the School of Mechanical Engineering, Northwestern Polytechnical University (NPU).
Before my Ph.D., I spent one year at Peng Cheng Laboratory as an assistant engineer.
My research interests focus on computer vision for robotics in challenging environments — 6D object pose estimation, 3D reconstruction, and underwater perception.
Close collaborators include Dr. Gu Wang, Bowen Fu, and Zeyu Chen.
Currently, I am seeking a Postdoctoral position starting in Spring 2026.
